Senior Accountant (Remote, Full-Time)
We're a remote accounting and financial strategy firm serving growing small businesses, mostly
marketing agencies. We handle our clients' books, payroll, and taxes, and we turn their numbers
into clear insight through monthly summaries, KPI dashboards, and CFO-level advisory. We're
hiring a Senior Accountant who brings more than accuracy: someone who thinks, questions,
and takes initiative.
Who You Are
This role is defined by who you are as much as what you know. At this level, technical mastery
and accurate execution are the baseline. What we're really hiring for is senior-level judgment,
initiative, and the confidence to speak up.
You're proactive by default. You don't wait for instructions to solve a problem you can
already see. You come forward with what you found and a proposed fix.
You question everything. A report that looks clean isn't automatically right. If the story
doesn't match the numbers, you dig in until it does.
You think like a consultant, not a task-taker. You understand why the numbers matter
to the client's business, not just how to record them.
You speak up with confidence. You're comfortable on client calls, explaining financials
clearly and raising concerns internally before they become problems.
You own your work completely. You hold yourself to a high bar, own your mistakes, fix
them, and don't repeat them.
This is not the right role for someone who prefers to wait for direction, check the boxes, and
move on. It's built for someone who wants to be trusted with real responsibility and earns more
of it over time.
What You'll Do
Own a portfolio of about 10 client accounts end to end: month-end close, reconciliations,
AP/AR, payroll, general ledger, and monthly financial statements.
Support tax preparation and filings.
Perform monthly trend and variance analysis, and lead CFO-level reporting, budgeting,
and forecasting for higher-tier clients (about 40% of the work is this deeper analysis).
Review AI-generated monthly financial summaries and challenge anything that doesn't
match the numbers before it reaches a client.
Spot red flags, trends, process gaps, and recurring errors, and bring them forward with a
recommended next step.
Join client calls alongside our leadership as the technical expert, answering questions
and walking clients through their numbers.
Track and manage team KPIs and client project timelines, keeping the Accounting
Manager ahead of risks and deadlines, and closing open loops without being reminded.
Serve as a technical resource for other accountants, and help improve our SOPs,
processes, and internal tools as we grow.
What You'll Bring
5--10 years of accounting experience managing multiple client accounts, including
complex or higher-tier engagements, ideally at an accounting firm, outsourced provider,
or fractional CFO practice.
Hands-on experience with US-based businesses and US accounting practices.
Advanced accounting skills and QuickBooks proficiency (required), with strong project
management across multiple client deadlines.
Strong financial analysis skills, including trend and variance analysis (required), plus
budgeting and forecasting.
Clear communication skills and strong professional English, written and spoken. You'll be
on client calls regularly.
A proven track record of initiative. Be ready to share specific examples of catching an
error, questioning a number that didn't add up, or improving a process before anyone
asked.
Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
Bonus: CPA or equivalent, US tax experience, or familiarity with Drake, SmartVault,
Reach Reporting, or Hubstaff.
